I analyzed this as well. Performed slightly worse actually. See the blog post for more details :)
"Write clean code. You'll thank yourself later."
So I tested it. 70 startup codebases. 146 funding rounds.
Messy code + fast shipping = 60.6% funded.
Cleanest codebases = 44.4%.
Speed beat perfection - at least when capital was cheap.

Split-screen comparison meme showing the same person in two poses. Left side labeled 'OpenAI 2015: Profit - $0' shows person in casual green long-sleeve shirt with arms crossed. Right side labeled 'OpenAI 2025: Profit - $0,000,000,000' shows the same person in formal business attire (navy blazer and white shirt) with arms crossed, depicting how the company became more professional-looking while maintaining zero profitability.
10 years of OpenAI:
2015: $0 profit
2025: Still $0 profit (but in a blazer)
Lost ~$8B in 2025.
Projected $14B loss in 2026.
Deutsche Bank estimates $143B in negative cash flow before profitability.
But hey, at least they upgraded from the t-shirt. That's progress, right?
People consumed the last Star Wars trilogy and endless Marvel content. AI slop hitting billions of views isn't a mystery, it's just pattern recognition.
Linus Torvalds just started vibe coding o_o

Comparison meme showing Nintendo Switch 2 on left (gaming console with controllers) versus a Layer 2 network switch on right (gray enterprise networking equipment). Left side lists Switch 2 problems: mostly for Mario Kart and dust collection, can't route packets, gets slower over time, OLED screen but 720p in 2025, storage full after 2 games, 400€, joycon drift. Right side lists Layer 2 switch advantages: doesn't lag or crash, 24 ports with no excuses, wired and proud, manages traffic better than any government, doesn't run out of storage, 99.9999% uptime, reliable.
POV: You're trying to decide which Switch to buy in 2026
Left: €400 dust collector with joycon drift that can't route packets
Right: Enterprise-grade packet-pushing powerhouse with 99.9999% uptime
One manages traffic better than any government. The other stores 2 games.
Choose wisely. 🔌
Screenshot of YouTube channel "Fireplace 10 hours" showing a single uploaded video titled "Fireplace 10 hours full HD" with 156 million views, uploaded 9 years ago. The channel has 108K subscribers and only one video. The thumbnail and profile picture both show a cozy fireplace with flames.
Imagine uploading 1 YouTube video 9 years ago and still generating 2M+ views a month.
No algorithm hacks. No posting schedule. No "content strategy."
Just a fireplace burning for 10 hours.
This is what digital real estate actually looks like.
Finally treating myself to a maxed MacBook this Christmas 🎄
Excited to experiment with local AI models in 2026 - feels like we're on the edge of something special with edge computing.
Wishing you all happy holidays and time with the people you care about 🎁

I've seen teams burn out maintaining Kubernetes for 500 users.
3 microservices. 40 hours/week fighting YAML. Zero business value.
A $5 VPS with Docker Compose would've been fine.
Stop cosplaying as Google and ship actual features.
Btw. within the past 72 hours:
- Apple's AI Chief steps down
- Apple's Head of UI Design leaves to Meta
- Apple's Policy Chief steps down
- Apple's Head of General Counsel steps down
Apple's attention to detail 🤩

This!
I guess you are not the only one :D
Kimi K2 is impressive!
What ever happened to this guy?
So what do i do now?
THANKS!
Google has made Quick Share compatible with AirDrop WITHOUT Apple's help!
But as I understand it:
Android ↔ iPhone: works ☑️
iPhone ↔ Android: ❌

Three scanning electron microscope images showing size comparison of LED technologies on silicon wafers. Left: Standard LEDs appear as large rectangular chips. Center: MiniLED is significantly smaller, showing detailed layered structure. Right: MicroLED measures just 15×30 micrometers, barely visible at this scale. Yellow labels and arrows indicate each technology type.
The scale of modern display tech is absurd.
That's a MicroLED on the right: 15×30 micrometers.
Smaller than a dust particle.
Thousands fit where one standard LED used to go.
Wild what's possible with modern manufacturing
Gemini 3 leak shows solid gains on math, vision, and SimpleQA
Sonnet still ahead on SWE-bench though, while Gemini takes TerminalBench
Nice to see models getting better at different things
Stacked bar chart showing generative AI traffic share trends over the past year. OpenAI's dominant position has notably declined while Gemini has grown substantially to become a significant competitor, alongside smaller gains from other platforms like Huggingface and Meta.
Gemini's growth over the past year is wild Google went from basically nothing to a serious challenger while ChatGPT's dominance is clearly slipping
The market is diversifying faster than I expected 👀

Two line charts titled "Rage against the machine" showing US employment changes from 2015-2025 (December 2022=100). Left panel shows junior employees: red line (AI-adopting firms) rises from 80 to ~103 by late 2022, then drops to ~95 after GPT-3.5's release; gray line (non-adopting firms) steadily rises to ~102. Right panel shows senior employees: red line (AI-adopting firms) rises dramatically from ~70 to ~107 by 2025, continuing upward after GPT-3.5; gray line (non-adopting firms) rises more gradually to ~102. Vertical lines mark GPT-3.5's release in both charts. Source: Hosseini & Lichtinger SSRN working paper, 2025.
Wild data just dropped 📊
Companies using AI are hiring MORE senior employees but fewer juniors.
What does this mean for your career? Are we entering an "experience premium" era?

A CAPTCHA puzzle titled 'Select all companies with profit - If there are none, click skip' showing a 4x4 grid of tech company logos including OpenAI, Snapchat, Vercel, Uber, NVIDIA, DoorDash, Lime, DeepSeek, Anthropic, Reddit, Lovable, Replit, a0.dev, Cursor, Lyft, and Bolt. A blue 'SKIP' button appears at the bottom right. The image satirizes how few tech companies are actually profitable.
These captcha's are getting out of hand..
Pretty sure the answer is just clicking skip.
